Casting Day at the American Political Theater

Ah, it's Election Day in the U S of A. This is the day that Americans head to the polls to choose the actors for many roles in the political theater to follow for the next two years. For WARRiors who click through from foreign lands, and for those Americans who still don't get it, the way this works in most states is you go to a polling station and enter your vote on an electronic voting device that is produced by private corporation with proprietary software that the public isn't allowed to inspect, don't have to produce auditable paper receipts, and are notoriously vulnerable to hacking, which has led many cases of vote tally irregularities since Bush pushed for the Help America Vote Act.

About Me

I'm an educated professional who found refuge in rock and roll from the insanity of the world around me. I hold a Master of Business Administration with honors and a Bachelor of Science degree with majors in Finance, Economics and Psychology from AACSB and AAU member public universities. My undergraduate foundation coursework in sciences was in Physics, and in arts it was in Philosophy and Spanish. I also studied Information Systems for progress toward a second masters degree at another large state university in America. I have worked for a few of the world's largest multi-national corporations in progressive levels of managerial responsibility and have also been a freelance writer, disc jockey, and small businessman. And I've played in a few kick ass rock bands, too. All this is said in the most abstract of terms to establish credibility while maintaining anonymity.
